Get all the spilled Beer off the Shop Floor without wasting any? 
If I use a paper towel ,it's tough to squeeze into my mouth.
If I use the wet vac,I have to get out of the tank anyway.
If a use a straw,Not only would I get chunks,But drinking ONE Cdn beer through a straw is like drinking 12 CDN beer the normal way.
I have to get to it before it evaporates.
We now return you to our regular programming!

WE do, Honest it was an Accident.
I bumped into the vise handle.
Eric, I thought of that but I can't get to my creeper and besides,my neck & tongue are too short to reach the floor once I'm on it.
I was thinking about sawdust or shavings and then just chew & suck on it til the beer came out.
What do you think ?

Who said anything about a creeper? You know you are not supposed to operate machinery while drinking!
The drinking budy sounds like a good idea...

ALCOHOL ABUSER!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol... wasting alcohol, what a shame.
What I'd do is just lay down in the spilt beer.
That way you will smell like beer.
You may not get the full benefit of the beer, but atleast you'll not be wasting it because you have it on your shirt and can smell it.
Good way to come home to the old lady huh?
lol

Ok, it's simple. Put a spare wheel-rim on the floor, or some other large cylinder or box that's open at both ends and will cover the spill.. Put a small pot or cup in the middle. Cover the whole works with a waterproof tarp or sheet. Put a block of ice in the middle of the tarp. Now, just heat up the floor with your cutting torch, or turn up the underfloor heating, so that the alcohol evaporates, and then the vapors will condense under the ice and drip into the cup.
Or maybe it would easier to distil the sludge from the shop-vac rather than doing it off the floor.

No no no no no! Stop trying to think like an engineer people. We are wrench turners, shade tree machanics, common sense type people. The simple and only solution to this dilema is to take that 3,000 capacity floor jack, raise one corner of the house so the brew will run down hill. Filter the stream of refresment through a clean shop rag to remove the "chunks", as the were so eloquently described, as it flows off the slab into a frosted mug right out of the shop freezer. Be sure to polish of the mug and any other frosted beverages within reach before removing the jack as doing so in reverse order may cause undo labor if such an occurance should happen agian during the process.

I think I would just reach into the fridge thats in the garage and get another one... 
- It would be colder anyway...
The dog can finish up the floor for me - he's already had 2, and has licked worse things....

I hate to be a party pooper. But, if you are spilling your beer, it sounds like it's time to quit and go in the house anyway. Actually, it does make good hand cleaner at the end of a job.

It's okay everyone the situation has been solved.
First off, I didn't intentionally spill it.
I walked into the garage turned right,hit the vise on the workbench and it fell out of my hand.
*Purely accidental,I assure you*
To rescue it :
What I did was quickly turn it into frozen beer by spraying it with Canned Air.
I then used a flipper and scooped it up and placed it in a glass.
Took it in the house and melted it and drank it.
There was minimum residue left on the floor.
I tried using Q-tips to get the last of it but the thought of stuffing cotton batten into a tooth cavity and hoping it would release from the cotton was not time effective.
I've sure learned my lesson about keeping my elbows up & in rather than, out & away from my body.
I now have a beer glove to avoid this in the future.
If that doesn't work ,possibly procurring it intravenously would.
Thank you for all your ideas.
